Where Was It Shot: Echo & The Bunnymen’s ‘The Cutter’

Long ago, the Icelandic team got the best new wave from Bunnymen, one of Liverpool, Echo, and a band after punk. In 1982, they took a music video for their single "cutter" with their third album "Porcupine". The videos taken at the Gullfoss Falls in the southwest part of Iceland are characterized by the landscape of Iceland and completely reflect the reputation of the band against cold and isolated images.

The original music video should have been filmed in Scotland, but in November Iceland is the next choice as it is unknown whether there is adequate snowfall. As you can see, in the music video, Gullfoss is completely frozen and covered with snow. Today, if you go there in the same year 35 years ago, there will be very few snow there, and autumn will not approach to freezing. Does it enable global warming

The band 's lighting engineer Bill Butt directed the music video. He wishes that the video will reflect the cold of the music on the record, and you really can not be colder than Iceland! Lead singer Ian McCulloch insists that this is a dangerous process and he said that they would not be under a few hundred feet if they slipped. The band remembers their total time in Iceland, the sun never shines, walking, rising up, or it seems to be a huge effort ... Welcome to the winter in Iceland

There is a picture of the band on the cover of the album, not far from Gufos Waterfall. In spite of the dangerous efforts, British music magazine 'Q' claims that cover is a symbol of rock band and is prototype of hero.

This week Echo and The Bunnymen. On December 21, 1985, Clyde Radio was recorded in Burrowland, Glasgow. At the forefront of neo-Psych, one of the reputation of the band steadily broadcasted in alternate and post punk, Echo and The Bunnymen, showed the beginning of the pop inner revolution of the 1980s. The mainstream is still firmly in the new wave, but on the other hand alternatives come into the chart through MTV, but new psychological movements make it exist and slowly build audiences. Since 1978, Echo & The Bunnymen led by Ian McCullogh has taken a more experimental approach. But as time goes on, their attractiveness will increase as viewers increase.
